    Apple has not the the market share the named companies have, they have no platform that brakes 25% of market share ... move on nothing to see here ...
    Half the smartphones sold in the US come from Apple, and half the US smartphone users are also tied to Apple. The majority of households own an Apple product, many of them in some cases. That sure sounds like a major market share.
    Smartphone marketshare by platform
    Android- 86.8%
    iOS-13.2%

    Worldwide. Elizabeth Warren is making a proposal that applies to China, France and Brazil. In the US it's Apple and then everyone else. 
    The EU will most likely support the idea of breaking up FB and Google, less so with Twitter.
    I don't see breaking up Apple is even on the page as seen from the EU.

  • Tim Cook changes Twitter name to 'Tim Apple' in response to Trump gaffe

    Tim does not in any way represent the legacy of Apple. Him taking that name is an insult to everyone who carried Apple. 
    Given that Jobs hand-selected the guy, this seems false at its face.

    Also "everyone who carried Apple." Who is inside that classification?
    Every day Tim is spitting in the face of the Mac users, the great programmers who made MacOS and great, game changing applications a reality. These are the men and women who carried the Apple through the hard years while Tim was still at Compaq. He also spits in the face of all those customers who believed in the company despite the continuous and relentless onslaught by the press, the finance sector, the naysayers in enterprise IT and telecoms, and Microsoft in particular. Without them, Apple would have been long gone, and you all would have been stuck with not so great products. 

    It is a disgrace how the Mac has been handled under his "leadership". It is a disgrace how he has politicized the company and it will backfire on him spectacularly in the long run.

    Apple should really stay out of content production and focus on core products. Just like they used to have a policy of not competing with their software developers and stay neutral, they need to do the same with content if they want to ensure a richest possible catalog available to their customers.
